S.P.C. MAKES ANNUAL ALHAMBRA
APPEAL TO-MORROW
TO-MORROW the Society for the Protection of Children will hold its annual flag day in Hongkong, when the public will be given an opportunity to make generous contributions to this important and humani- tarian work.
Last year the Society dealt with new cases which involved 3,671 children, every case being thoroughly investigated by its trained Inspectors and proved to be deserving.
Many Problems
An inquiry at one of the centres about beggars draws a rueful smile from the energetic Inspectors.
"The relatives like them on the streets, more money. But sometimes we can do something. We have a ittle cripple just now who was re- ported to us. His parents are willing that we should help him although

RUSSIA AND CHINA
LONDON, Jan. 19 (Reuter),~~~The Sovlet Government st recognises the Government of Generalissimo Chiang Kai-sheks, but recent pro- fessions of friendship towards China which have appeared in the Soviet Press have made more mention of the Chinese people than of Chiang Kai-shek, says the Moscow Cortes pondent of the "Times."
The latest official reference to the Soviet policy towards China was in Stalin's message to Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek, wishing China victory over all her enemies..
Presumably Stalin had in mind Great Britain, France and America, the "Imperialists" when the Soviet Union also rates as enemies of China. The Soviel newspapers are giving the impression that the Soviet Union expected much from the change of government In Japan. The news- paper "Trud" points out the dilemmro which has been responsible, for the political instability in Japan. On the one hand, there is Japan's desire to end the war in China in the quickest possible time. (Trud" did not say so, but it meant that an agreement with the Soviet Union could be use- ful to Japan). On the other land
